I had a undercover flex that was pretty good. Any covers that you really like?

I have the Flex as well. Back Flip is a popular one as well.

Encore makes a damn good one. But it's pretty pricey

I have a backflip mx4 and love it. Like the ability to open and close with tailgate closed.

Backflip or anything similar. I'll never own a different design.

The ones I've seen that look really nice are the Bakflip trifold. I think they're made of aluminum. Can't say firsthand how good they are but heard they're really nice and keep the bed dry.

Im on my 3rd cover on my '16 F150 due to warranty and being an unsatisfied customer. Do youself a favor and get a Bakflip MX4. Its the newest Bakflip. I tried to get away with less hinges and no drain hoses but Bakflip is #1. Im very satisfied.

The MX4 is heavier than others and a little more difficult to completely remove, but still not terrible. You have to get in the bed and undo two hand wingnut type nuts. Also when removed the remaining rail is not a protrusion except the very front. Its also fairly waterproof which is important to me because I have Bedrug and use my bed as a trunk. I only have water at the corner at tailgate so I can just position cargo forward or center.

Call Luke @ Truck Alterations for whatever cover you order. He will beat any price and expert service. His website is generic and his store front is a U-Haul store but dont turn away because of that. You will save $200-$150, have free shipping (usually 2-3day), and have full manufacturers warranty. Not all distributors can give the warranty.

Peragon. Very similar to bakflip as far as style, however, you can have it painted to match your truck for no extra charge, should you want to. Also, once you fold it all the way up, you can detach it and remove it very easily for a fully open bed. It's a way tighter fit than a bakflip. I had bakflips on my previous trucks and love them, but they always seemed to leak just a bit.

The best part is this is sold direct to consumer so you get get one for around 600-700 brand new. You pay 800-1000 for a comparable brand.
